CX is an ‘effect’ you ‘cause’ that manifests itself in what clients say (feedback) and what they do (behavior). Feedback is qualitative while behavior is quantitative – measurable along the client journey in either ‘gifts of time’ or transfers of money. If your CX underperforms at engaging clients, they will give their time to your competitors … and then their money.

Actions speak louder than words, so asset managers should measure client behavior to focus their organization on what matters most (which is whether or not clients buy, stay, or buy more), and what you can do to stimulate client behavior.
